Did You Play Powerball? -$50,000 Winner Sold In Louisiana

There was no single ticket that matched all of the necessary numbers in Saturday's (Oct.13) Powerball drawing. That means the jackpot on Wednesday night will be an estimated $345 million. If you couple that with the estimated jackpot of $654 million in next Tuesday's Mega Millions game you're looking at an opportunity to claim over a billion dollars in lottery winnings on an investment that could be under $5.

While there was no big winner in either lottery game in their most recent drawings. There have been some Louisiana lottery players who will cash out more than they invested. In Friday's Mega Millions game a ticket sold in Harahan Louisiana was worth $10,000. In last night's Powerball a ticket sold in Baton Rouge is worth $50,000.
